Growing conditions:
Challenging! 2015: Early budbreak and erratic temperatures swings. No frost, but cool, windy weather during bloom led to shatter in many varieties. Early harvest with excellent quality due to tiny berry size, while yields were miniscule due on-going drought and poor set.

Winemaking:
The grapes were hand harvested, then whole cluster pressed while still cool. Barrel fermented in 30% new and 70% seasoned Hungarian oak barrels. The wine was aged on its lees passively for 6 months.
This process produced a richer mouthfeel and allowed the wine to be bottled with minimal filtration.
